Elephant Calf Charging

Video shows a young elephant calf charging our vehicle and then very quickly realizing that this might not be such a good idea after all. Not only is he (she?) very cute but he also manages a small jump.

A few years ago,in Kenya,we saw a family of about 20 elephants of all ages just stroll by us no more than 15 yards away.One of us asked the guide if our close proximity would frighten them or cause them to challenge us.He said that as long as we just sat quietly (he had shut down the engine) we'd be fine.

I nearly needed a change of underwear being so close to animals that outweigh me by a factor of 20.

I love elephants.

Never had any. Are they better fried, barbecued, or baked?

He proably charged because he didn’t like them laughing at him.

Then they laughed louder, which I’m sure damaged the poor calf’s self-esteem even further.

He’s probably going to need years of therapy now to get over the trauma.

Went to a highly specialized restaurant that advertised a $100.00 reward to any customer that can place an order that they cannot fill.

So I, being a smart-a$$, ordered an elephant sandwich. The waiter disappeared for a few minutes and then came back and handed me a $100.00 bill.

The waiter said "the cook said to give you the money....he doesn't want to start another elephant for one lousy sandwich".

Adorable.

Note how the retreat is beyond the herd.

Elephant self-esteem research never gets the funding it really needs.

I'm sure that this video, now that it's going viral, will remedy the disgraceful lack of attention that has caused this critical research topic to be be so dreadfully underfunded up to now.
